refactor: [menu, context-menu] use base ui native menu filtering - #994
Menu and ContextMenu search use Base UI's Menu.FilterProvider, Menu.Input, Menu.List and Menu.Empty in place of an Autocomplete inside the popup. This is the menu filtering follow-up from Upgrade Base UI to 1.9.0 #973. Base UI marks the filtering API as preview, so this PR is a draft. Props, slots and exported types stay the same.
Remove the synthetic pointer and keyboard events that moved the highlight and opened submenus, the custom matcher and the per-item filtering.
A searchable submenu keeps its own input, and the root search filters submenu triggers by their text, as before. ArrowRight or Enter on a highlighted submenu trigger opens it and focuses its input.
The Menu, ContextMenu and Menubar search demos and LinearMenuDemo render EmptyState. The changelog marks these changes as breaking, and the upgrade guide has a section for them.
Behavior changes
In search mode the trigger has aria-haspopup="dialog", the input is a searchbox labelled by searchPlaceholder, and the list is a menu. Items keep their menu roles (menuitem, menuitemcheckbox, menuitemradio) instead of option.
Matching ignores case, accents and punctuation. An item matches by its rendered text, including text in leadingIcon and trailingIcon. With a value, it matches the value and its children text, and text in the icons no longer matches. A radio item's value no longer matches.
Typing highlights the first match.
Group labels stay visible while their group has matches. Separators still hide while the query is not empty.
In search mode, EmptyState shows only when no item matches, as a role="status" live region. Before, it rendered whenever you rendered it. As a direct child of Content, it renders next to the list, not inside it.
ArrowLeft in a submenu's search input moves the text cursor instead of closing the submenu.
Escape in the root input closes the whole menu, even when a submenu is open on hover.
eventDetails.cancel() in onOpenChange keeps an uncontrolled Menu or ContextMenu open. Before, the wrapper closed it anyway.
onInputValueChange keeps one argument. #979 and #983 also change it.
Search mode wraps the root in Menu.FilterProvider and renders Menu.Input, Menu.Empty and Menu.List in place of an Autocomplete inside the popup. This removes the synthetic pointer and keyboard events, the custom matcher and the per-item filtering. Props, slots and exported types are unchanged.
Items use their value as the Base UI label only in a searchable menu. A radio item's value is not used for matching. Separators stay hidden while the query is not empty.
A group with no matching items stays in the list with the hidden attribute. The input keeps its bottom border while the empty state shows, since the empty state renders outside the list.
Query search mode by its menu roles, and cover accent-insensitive matching, value as label, group labels, the empty state live region, manual mode and submenu keyboard handoff.
Menu and ContextMenu autocomplete now use shared input state and Base UI menu filtering. Searchable items retain menu roles and provide labels for matching. Searchable menus display an announced empty state when no item matches. Tests and demos cover matching, filtering, accessibility, and submenu behavior. Documentation and migration notes describe the updated search semantics.

Give the search input a non-empty accessible name.
When searchPlaceholder is '', MenuSearch sets aria-label="" and placeholder="" on the search input. Base UI 1.9.0 adds no fallback name, so the searchbox has no accessible name. Require a non-empty label, or use a default label when the placeholder is empty.

Add an Enter-key case for the searchable submenu handoff.
The new handoff tests cover only ArrowRight. The PR description says ArrowRight or Enter opens a highlighted submenu trigger. No test in the menu or context-menu suites presses Enter on a submenu trigger, so an Enter regression would not fail these tests.

- Line 73: Update the autocomplete matching description for
ContextMenu.RadioItem to state that radio items match by their children text,
not by their value prop. Keep the existing value-based matching description for
other item parts.
Review comments at @apps/www/src/content/docs/components/menu/index.mdx:
- Line 94: Update the Menu.RadioItem implementation so that, when autocomplete
is enabled and value is a string, it passes value as Base UI’s label; otherwise
leave label undefined. This ensures autocomplete searches radio items by value
while preserving existing behavior when autocomplete is disabled or value is not
a string.

# Context Menu
A menu that appears at the pointer on right click or long press.
`import { ContextMenu } from '@base-ui/react/context-menu';
import styles from './index.module.css';
export default function ExampleMenu() {
return (
<ContextMenu.Root>
<ContextMenu.Trigger className={styles.Trigger}>Right click here</ContextMenu.Trigger>

<ContextMenu.Item className={styles.Item}>Share</ContextMenu.Item>
</ContextMenu.Popup>
</ContextMenu.Positioner>
</ContextMenu.Portal>
</ContextMenu.Root>
);
}
`
## Usage guidelines
* Use context menus as an enhancement: Don’t make a context menu the only way to perform actions. Users may not discover or be able to open a context menu, especially on touch devices or with assistive technology. Always provide visible controls for the actions that are available in the context menu.
## Anatomy
Import the components and place them together:

`collisionAvoidance``CollisionAvoidance``—`
Name
`collisionAvoidance`
Description
Determines how to handle collisions when positioning the popup.
`side` controls overflow on the preferred placement axis (`top`/`bottom` or `left`/`right`):
* `'flip'`: keep the requested side when it fits; otherwise try the opposite side (`top` and `bottom`, or `left` and `right`).
* `'shift'`: never change side; keep the requested side and move the popup within the clipping boundary so it stays visible.
* `'none'`: do not correct side-axis overflow.
`align` controls overflow on the alignment axis (`start`/`center`/`end`):
* `'flip'`: keep side, but swap `start` and `end` when the requested alignment overflows.
* `'shift'`: keep side and requested alignment, then nudge the popup along the alignment axis to fit.
* `'none'`: do not correct alignment-axis overflow.
`fallbackAxisSide` controls fallback behavior on the perpendicular axis when the preferred axis cannot fit:
* `'start'`: allow perpendicular fallback and try the logical start side first (`top` before `bottom`, or `left` before `right` in LTR).
* `'end'`: allow perpendicular fallback and try the logical end side first (`bottom` before `top`, or `right` before `left` in LTR).
* `'none'`: do not fallback to the perpendicular axis.
When `side` is `'shift'`, explicitly setting `align` only supports `'shift'` or `'none'`.
### Popup

# Context Menu
A menu that appears at the pointer on right click or long press.
`import { ContextMenu } from '@base-ui/react/context-menu';
import styles from './index.module.css';
export default function ExampleMenu() {
return (
<ContextMenu.Root>
<ContextMenu.Trigger className={styles.Trigger}>Right click here</ContextMenu.Trigger>
<ContextMenu.Portal>
<ContextMenu.Positioner className={styles.Positioner}>
<ContextMenu.Popup className={styles.Popup}>
<ContextMenu.Item className={styles.Item}>Add to Library</ContextMenu.Item>
<ContextMenu.Item className={styles.Item}>Add to Playlist</ContextMenu.Item>
<ContextMenu.Separator className={styles.Separator} />
<ContextMenu.Item className={styles.Item}>Play Next</ContextMenu.Item>

## Usage guidelines
* Use context menus as an enhancement: Don’t make a context menu the only way to perform actions. Users may not discover or be able to open a context menu, especially on touch devices or with assistive technology. Always provide visible controls for the actions that are available in the context menu.
## Anatomy
Import the components and place them together:

<title>Menu · Base UI</title>

<excerpt>citeturn0search1 [wordlim: 200] Crawled: 2 days ago; The popup is a `dialog` that holds the `searchbox` input and the `menu` list. ... `children``React.ReactNode``—` ... /** Cancels Base UI from handling the event. ... /** Allows the event to propagate in cases where Base UI will stop the propagation.
### FilteringPreview
Wrap `<Menu.Root>` in `<Menu.FilterProvider>`, add `<Menu.Input>` to the popup, and put the items inside `<Menu.List>`.
Filterable menu
`<Menu.FilterProvider>
<Menu.Root>
<Menu.Trigger>Actions</Menu.Trigger>
<Menu.Portal>
<Menu.Positioner>
<Menu.Popup>
<Menu.Input aria-label="Filter actions" />
<Menu.Clear>Clear</Menu.Clear>
<Menu.Empty>No results.</Menu.Empty>
<Menu.List>
<Menu.Item>Rename</Menu.Item>
<Menu.Item>Delete</Menu.Item>
</Menu.List>
</Menu.Popup>
</Menu.Positioner>
</Menu.Portal>
</Menu.Root>
</Menu.FilterProvider>
`
Label the input with `aria-label`, `aria-labelledby`, or a visible `<label>`. Type to narrow the actions, then use the arrow keys to move through matching items.
#### Matching items
Items match their text by default. Use `label` to override it.
Labels
`const { contains } = Menu.useFilter();
const [query, setQuery] = React.useState('');
const results = actions.filter((action) => contains(action.label, query));
<Menu.FilterProvider filter={null} value={query} onValueChange={setQuery}>
<Menu.Root>{/* render `results` */}</Menu.Root>
</Menu.FilterProvider>`
#### Controlling the query
`value` and `onValueChange` on `<Menu.FilterProvider>` control the query. It resets to an empty string when the menu closes, reported with the `'popup-close'` reason. Cancel that change to keep the query.
#### Highlighting
Use `autoHighlight` to highlight the first match while filtering, or `autoHighlight="always"` to highlight it even when the query is empty. The highlighted item has the `data-highlighted` attribute, and `onItemHighlighted` on `<Menu.Root>` reports each change.
#### Focus and keyboard
Opening the menu with a click or the keyboard focuses the input. Opening it on hover, touch, or with a pen does not, so the on-screen keyboard stays hidden. The arrow keys move the highlight while the input keeps focus. `Tab` closes the menu, and `Shift`+`Tab` returns focus to the trigger. The popup is a `dialog` that holds the `searchbox` input and the `menu` list.
#### Submenus
Wrap each searchable `<Menu.SubmenuRoot>` in its own `<Menu.FilterProvider>`. Submenus without a provider remain unfiltered.
#### Filtering with detached triggers
Use the same `Menu.createHandle()` handle for the root and its detached trigger:
Detached trigger
`const handle = Menu.createHandle();
<Menu.Trigger handle={handle}>Actions</Menu.Trigger>
<Menu.FilterProvider>
<Menu.Root handle={handle}>{/* menu parts */}</Menu.Root>
</Menu.FilterProvider>
`
## API reference
### FilterProviderPreview
Enables filtering for the menu or submenu it wraps. Add `Menu.Input` to the popup and place its items in `Menu.List`. Wrap each searchable submenu in its own provider. Doesn’t render its own HTML element.
Component props table

Keep an explicit dialog role on the searchable ContextMenu popup.
With autocomplete, the popup no longer sets a role. Base UI 1.9.0 gives the popup presentation when it renders a list, and menu otherwise. Screen-reader users do not get a dialog that contains the searchbox.
Suggested fix
Restore the removed prop on ContextMenuPrimitive.Popup, then confirm in a screen reader that the popup is announced as a dialog. This edit was not run, and Base UI's prop merge order was not verified.
IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.
Suggested change
onFocus={onFocus}
role={autocomplete ? 'dialog' : 'menu'}
onFocus={onFocus}

Review comment at
@packages/react/components/context-menu/context-menu-content.tsx at line 63:
Restore an explicit role on ContextMenuPrimitive.Popup in the searchable
ContextMenu: use dialog when autocomplete is enabled and menu otherwise.
Preserve the existing onFocus behavior and ensure the explicit role takes
precedence over Base UI’s default popup role.

review. Visit https://docs.coderabbit.ai/cli?utm_source=ghpr
Pass `autocomplete` to the Menu root. Each menu manages its own autocomplete state.
- **`autocompleteMode="auto"`** is the default. Items filter as the user types, matched against each item's `value` prop or its children text.
- **`autocompleteMode="auto"`** is the default. Items filter as the user types. Each item matches by its `value` prop, or by its children text when it has no `value`. Matching ignores case and accents.

<title>Menu · Base UI</title>
<location>https://base-ui.com/react/components/menu</location>
<excerpt>citeturn0search1 [wordlim: 200] Crawled: 2 days ago; Use the `<Menu.GroupLabel>` part to add a label to a `<Menu.Group>` or `<Menu.RadioGroup>`. ... <span className={styles.RadioItemText}>Name</span> ... <Menu.Input aria-label="Filter actions" /> ... Allows you to replace the component’s HTML element with a different tag, or compose it with another component. ... When filtering items yourself, `Menu.useFilter` matches text according to the user’s locale.
### FilteringPreview
Wrap `<Menu.Root>` in `<Menu.FilterProvider>`, add `<Menu.Input>` to the popup, and put the items inside `<Menu.List>`.
Filterable menu
`<Menu.FilterProvider>
<Menu.Root>
<Menu.Trigger>Actions</Menu.Trigger>
<Menu.Portal>
<Menu.Positioner>
<Menu.Popup>
<Menu.Input aria-label="Filter actions" />
<Menu.Clear>Clear</Menu.Clear>
<Menu.Empty>No results.</Menu.Empty>
<Menu.List>
<Menu.Item>Rename</Menu.Item>
<Menu.Item>Delete</Menu.Item>
</Menu.List>
</Menu.Popup>
</Menu.Positioner>
</Menu.Portal>
</Menu.Root>
</Menu.FilterProvider>
`
Label the input with `aria-label`, `aria-labelledby`, or a visible `<label>`. Type to narrow the actions, then use the arrow keys to move through matching items.
#### Matching items
Items match their text by default. Use `label` to override it.
Labels
`<Menu.Item label="Move to folder">Move</Menu.Item>
`
Groups with no matching items get the `hidden` attribute and stay mounted. If your styles set `display` on a group, add a `[hidden]` rule so it still hides.
Hiding styled groups
`.Group {
display: flex;
}
.Group[hidden] {
display: none;
}
`
`<Menu.Empty>` appears when no items match.
By default, an item matches when its text contains the query, ignoring case, accents, and punctuation. Use `filter` to replace the matching. It receives each item’s text and the trimmed query, and keeps the item when it returns `true`. `Menu.useFilter` provides the same locale-aware comparisons.
Custom matching
`const { startsWith } = Menu.useFilter();
<Menu.FilterProvider filter={startsWith}>
<Menu.Root>{/* menu parts */}</Menu.Root>
</Menu.FilterProvider>`
For external filtering, pass `filter={null}` and render the results yourself, omitting empty groups.
External filtering
`const { contains } = Menu.useFilter();
const [query, setQuery] = React.useState('');
const results = actions.filter((action) => contains(action.label, query));
<Menu.FilterProvider filter={null} value={query} onValueChange={setQuery}>
<Menu.Root>{/* render `results` */}</Menu.Root>
</Menu.FilterProvider>`
#### Controlling the query
`value` and `onValueChange` on `<Menu.FilterProvider>` control the query. It resets to an empty string when the menu closes, reported with the `'popup-close'` reason. Cancel that change to keep the query.
#### Highlighting
Use `autoHighlight` to highlight the first match while filtering, or `autoHighlight="always"` to highlight it even when the query is empty. The highlighted item has the `data-highlighted` attribute, and `onItemHighlighted` on `<Menu.Root>` reports each change.
#### Focus and keyboard
Opening the menu with a click or the keyboard focuses the input. Opening it on hover, touch, or with a pen does not, so the on-screen keyboard stays hidden. The arrow keys move the highlight while the input keeps focus. `Tab` closes the menu, and `Shift`+`Tab` returns focus to the trigger. The popup is a `dialog` that holds the `searchbox` input and the `menu` list.
#### Submenus
Wrap each searchable `<Menu.SubmenuRoot>` in its own `<Menu.FilterProvider>`. Submenus without a provider remain unfiltered.
#### Filtering with detached triggers
Use the same `Menu.createHandle()` handle for the root and its detached trigger:
Detached trigger
`const handle = Menu.createHandle();
<Menu.Trigger handle={handle}>Actions</Menu.Trigger>
<Menu.FilterProvider>
<Menu.Root handle={handle}>{/* menu parts */}</Menu.Root>
</Menu.FilterProvider>
`
## API reference
### FilterProviderPreview
Enables filtering for the menu or submenu it wraps. Add `Menu.Input` to the popup and place its items in `Menu.List`. Wrap each searchable submenu in its own provider. Doesn’t render its own HTML element.
Component props table
Prop
Type
Default
`defaultValue``string``—`
Name
`defaultValue`
Description
The uncontrolled filter query when the menu is initially rendered. To render a controlled query, use the `value` prop instead.
Type
`string | undefined`
`value``string``—`
Name
`value`
Description
The filter query. Use when controlled. When the popup closes, `onValueChange` is called with an empty query. The controlled value changes only when the consumer updates this prop.
Type
`string | undefined`
`onValueChange``function``—`
Name
`onValueChange`
Description
Event handler called when the filter query changes.
Type
`| ((
value: string,
eventDetails: Menu.FilterProvider.ChangeEventDetails,
) => void)
| undefined`
`autoHighlight``boolean | 'always'``false`
Name
`autoHighlight`
Description
Whether filtering highlights the first matching item automatically.
* `true`: highlight it while the query is not empty.
* `'always'`: highlight it even when the query is empty.
Opening the menu from the keyboard highlights the first item either way, and the arrow keys can move the highlight to another item. With either value, the arrow keys wrap within the list rather than returning to the input, and with `'always'` a pointer highlight stays when the pointer leaves.
Type
`boolean | 'always' | undefined`
Default
`false`
`filter``function``—`
Name
`filter`
Description
MenuFilter function used to match items against the query. Receives each item’s `label` (or its rendered text) and the trimmed query, and keeps the item when it returns `true`. By default, items match when they contain the query, ignoring case, accents, and punctuation. Pass `null` when rendering filtered items yourself.
Type
`| ((text: string, query: string) => boolean)
| null
| undefined`
`locale``Intl.LocalesArgument``—`
Name
`locale`
Description
The locale the default `filter` uses for string comparison. Defaults to the user’s runtime locale.
Type
`Intl.LocalesArgument | undefined`
`children``React.ReactNode``—`
Name
`children`
Description
The `<Menu.Root>` or `<Menu.SubmenuRoot>` to make filterable.
Type
`React.ReactNode | undefined`
### Menu.FilterProvider.PropsHide
Re-Export of FilterProvider props as `MenuFilterProviderProps`
### Menu.FilterProvider.StateHide
`type MenuFilterProviderState = {}`
### Menu.FilterProvider.ChangeEventReasonHide
`type MenuFilterProviderChangeEventReason =
'input-change' | 'input-clear' | 'clear-press' | 'popup-close'`
### Menu.FilterProvider.ChangeEventDetailsHide
`type MenuFilterProviderChangeEventDetails = (
| { reason: 'clear-press'; event: KeyboardEvent | MouseEvent | PointerEvent }
| { reason: 'input-change'; event: Event | InputEvent }
| { reason: 'input-clear'; event: Event | FocusEvent | InputEvent }
| { reason: 'popup-close'; event: Event }
) & {
/** Cancels Base UI from handling the event. */
cancel: () => void;
/** Allows the event to propagate in cases where Base UI will stop the propagation. */
allowPropagation: () => void;
/** Indicates whether the event has been canceled. */
isCanceled: boolean;
/** Indicates whether the event is allowed to propagate. */
isPropagationAllowed: boolean;
/** The element that triggered the event, if applicable. */
trigger: Element | undefined;
}`
* `false`: user interaction with the rest of the document is allowed.
On touch devices, a `true` modal blocks outside taps but leaves the page scrollable unless the popup spans nearly the full viewport width, matching native iOS behavior.
Nested menus ignore this prop, and menus opened by hover are never modal.
Type
`boolean | undefined`
Default
`true`
`onItemHighlighted``function``—`
Name
`onItemHighlighted`
Description
Callback fired when an item is highlighted or unhighlighted. Receives the highlighted item element (or `undefined` if no item is highlighted) and details containing the reason for the change, the event, and the item’s text label. The `reason` can be:
* `'keyboard'`: the highlight changed due to keyboard navigation.
* `'pointer'`: the highlight changed due to pointer hovering. The event may be a `MouseEvent` rather than a `PointerEvent`.
* `'none'`: the highlight changed for another reason, such as automatic highlighting while filtering, the item list changing, or the popup opening or closing.
### Menu.Arrow.StateHide
`type MenuArrowState = {
/** Whether the menu is currently open. */
open: boolean;
/** The side of the anchor the component is placed on. */
side: 'top' | 'bottom' | 'left' | 'right' | 'inline-end' | 'inline-start';

Pass value as the search label for radio items.
With autocomplete enabled, Menu.RadioItem does not pass value as Base UI's label. Menu.Item does. Base UI uses the rendered text when label is absent, so a radio item's value is not searched. The documentation says items match by value, so searching compact misses <Menu.RadioItem value="compact">Condensed</Menu.RadioItem>.

Review comment at @apps/www/src/content/docs/components/menu/index.mdx at line
94:
Update the Menu.RadioItem implementation so that, when autocomplete is enabled
and value is a string, it passes value as Base UI’s label; otherwise leave label
undefined. This ensures autocomplete searches radio items by value while
preserving existing behavior when autocomplete is disabled or value is not a
string.

An item with a value matches on both its value and its children text.
A search of only spaces keeps separators visible. An EmptyState inside
a fragment renders once.

Follow-up Comments
Handle component-rendered item labels in menu search.
35-36: Minor · Functional Correctness · Low value
Handle component-rendered item labels in menu search.
When an item has a value, its search label is built only from value and the text of its JSX children. Text rendered by a child component, such as <TranslatedLabel id='archive' />, is not included. Searching for that displayed text hides the item. Pass an explicit label to the item to set its search text, or document this limit.
Publication note: the supplied attribution record for component-label-publication is pre_existing, with merge-base evidence and a failing_path_unchanged account. That record meets the attribution bar, so the minor finding is excluded from publication. This is an attribution outcome, not a change to the verdict.

Review comment at @packages/react/components/menu/utils.ts around lines 35 - 36:
Update getItemLabel and its menu-search caller to use an explicit item label as
search text when provided, since getChildrenValue cannot extract text rendered
by child components; preserve the existing value-and-children behavior when no
explicit label is supplied.

Base UI marks the filtering API as preview, so this PR is a draft. Props, slots and exported types stay the same.LinearMenuDemorenderEmptyState. The changelog marks these changes as breaking, and the upgrade guide has a section for them.Behavior changes
aria-haspopup="dialog", the input is asearchboxlabelled bysearchPlaceholder, and the list is amenu. Items keep their menu roles (menuitem,menuitemcheckbox,menuitemradio) instead ofoption.leadingIconandtrailingIcon. With avalue, it matches thevalueand itschildrentext, and text in the icons no longer matches. A radio item's value no longer matches.EmptyStateshows only when no item matches, as arole="status"live region. Before, it rendered whenever you rendered it. As a direct child ofContent, it renders next to the list, not inside it.eventDetails.cancel()inonOpenChangekeeps an uncontrolled Menu or ContextMenu open. Before, the wrapper closed it anyway.onInputValueChangekeeps one argument. #979 and #983 also change it.Stacked on #993.
